Wasn't Berge brought in to replace Lundstram?Yeah you contrast to the overlapping centre backs and that team was coached so well in patterns of play. You knew what was coming but the opposition couldn’t stop us because the formation just cleverly gave us overloads. Then O’Connell got injured and we couldn’t replicate as we didn’t prioritise his replacement at the right time.
We prioritised having our own keeper in Leadboots and striker in Sicknote Brewster. I still maintain we should have prioritised replacing Lundstram with another high tier midfielder and an alternative for O’Connell who could replace Egan as an alternative too.
We went mend and make do with Robbo, Ampadu etc.
It quickly came apparent having him and Norwood in the same midfield was like trying to eat soup with two forks ...
